Games that have names that don't make any sense, don't describe the game or are just unfitting for some other reason.
Pic related, I don't think it's a bad name but it doesn't fit a Zelda game and never in the game do you encounter anything called the Breath of the wild.
Should've called it something like The Slate of the Sheikah or The Paraglider of Calamity.
This game's design philosophy is literally impressionism, and you are an absolute retard for not noticing that and thinking in such a superficial level
>le nothing in the story has the name of the title so it's not related le
Kys you brainlet piece of shit.
>Should've called it something like The Slate of the Sheikah or The Paraglider of Calamity.
No.
It's called breath of the wild as the idea is the wild has taken over after most of hyrule was destroyed, new life has been 'breathed' into the environments. I sincerely hope you're just joking around and aren't actually this stupid.
This.
This guy gets it.
>Breath of the wild
uh.. the entire game is the Breath of the Wild. Wild means wilderness which is literally 99.9% of the world in the new Zelda game. It a state of being or a location if you want to think of it that way.
Its like saying that the universe shouldn't be called the universe because you never actually encounter a single "thing" called the universe. The universe is all encompassing, Breath of the Wild is all encompassing state of being that is Hyrule at that particular time.
And, I'll go ahead and pre-empt your first remark saying that we've named the universe, but the breath of the wild isn't the name of the setting. In which case I respond to you that the breath of the wild is the actual name of the disk itself which contains the particular setting of zelda so indeed the breath of the wild is an actual physical object that an outsider can see, that contains what that particular title represents.
This thread is bad and you should honestly feel embarrassed you even posted it. I actually feel really bad for you user, if you can't pick up simple concepts like this you are going to have a rough life. Keep your head up kiddo, one day you might overcome your debilitating learning deficiency.
breath of the wild makes sense but I will agree that it sounds retarded
Learn to read you cumtwats, I specificly said it's not a bad name but that I don't think it's fitting for a Zelda game.
>inb4 muh breaking of conventions
Doesn't mean you have to throw every single tradition out of the window.
the "X of the Y" naming convention really began with OoT and even then only around half the games use that naming convention. You're just a dumbass and/or troll
uh it's actually a great title because there's fucking nothing in the game and it refers to the sigh you let out when you realize how empty it is
ebin
>X of the Y
>The Majoras Mask
>The Wind Waker
>Twilight Princes
>Skyward Sword
You missed the entire point. It's not the format but rather that they refer to a plotpoint in the game, which Botw really doesn't.
Don't get me wrong homie, I read that part. But then I read your suggestions for alternate titles and that's where you lost credibility.
>Link's Awakening
>Adventure of Link
>A Link Between Worlds
>A Link to the Past
none of these are referring to a plotpoint or item in the game. Instead, they reference the overall theme of the game (except the 2nd one, but Zelda 2 is an outlier in general), much like BotW. The reason they didn't use a more descriptive name is because the main selling point of BotW IS the world itself - it's what sets it apart the most from other instalments.
>The Majora's Mask
>The Majora is Mask
English is a fucking disaster of a language.
>never in the game do you encounter anything called the Breath of the wild.
Holy shit I want to be mad but this is so retarded I cant help but laugh.
Let me help you, during the whole game, you breathe in the wild.
You're fucking retarded. This has to be bait.
>I'm too retarded for this language's conventions, therefore it's a shit language!
Should've been called The Oxygen of Being Alive.
OP, this is a question that literally everyone thought about for a second, but didn't give it two seconds, ya feel me?
You gave it those two seconds, and then came here with that bullshit because you thought you had something. No one gives a shit.
>Link, you've done it.... You've found the Oxygen of Being Alive!
I'm bored at work okay? I literally have nothing but time. Might as well post stupid questions on shitty chinese pottery forums.
>for, now, we truly are...The Breath of the Wild™
One of the best zelda titles that doesn't sound like a saturday morning cartoon episode

Should've called it something like The Mirror of the Dark or The Pegasus Boots of Really Really Fast.
You're not wrong, the name makes absolutely no sense. However it came out before there was an established naming tradition in Zelda games.
